Thanks.  What about this more vague question:

>> More generally, can the number of bytes reported be confused by stack manipulation?  I.e., if things go on the stack, but then the stack is unwound, does "time" report any allocation?

I'm writing some code that does not allocate anything, as far as I can tell from the GVM code, yet there is a report of 240 bytes allocated.  Am I missing something?
